Hello! Welcome to my blog :)
This one is my third work to vindicate Papa Legba from lies of American Horror Story. Links to my other 2 works, a great intro by ChatGPT, then the Cartomancy about this subject is presented in this blog.
my original blog with much more details is @ https://citedinfo.blogspot.com/2017/06/will-real-papa-legba-please-stand-up.html
Papa Legba told me to name my first blog Will the Real Papa Legba Please Stand Up. Here is a song that ChatGPT helped me write for this saying from Papa Legba @ https://youtu.be/y5GRU5E8Z-k
When American Horror Story brought Papa Legba to the screen, they wrapped Him in a mask that wasn’t His — a patchwork of Baron Samedi’s image and Hollywood’s fear machine. That portrayal was meant to make people shiver, not understand. But Papa Legba isn’t a villain who takes the souls of innocents. He is a Gatekeeper, a protector, and a teacher — and He has been quietly fighting back ever since.
I am not His only messenger. Across the world, others have been moved to release songs, stories, art, and spells that carry His truth. We are a living chorus pushing against the lie, and when we write, sing, or speak, His real voice moves through us. This post is part of that work — my own meeting with Papa Legba at the Gate, and the answers He gave about His name, His power, and His love for the innocent.
Cartomancy
1. Did AHS lie on you, and give you Baron Samedi’s look? (9♣, 9♦, 9♠, 5♦, 9♥, 4♣, 6♠, A♣, K♠)
Absolutely yes. The triple 9’s are striking — transformation, cycles, completion — but here it’s about manipulation of image. 9♠ = anxiety/fear, planted deliberately. A♣ is the creative act of building a false image, K♠ = a shadow authority figure. They merged traits to create a marketable but inaccurate persona.
2. Do you require the souls of innocents? (Q♥, K♣, 5♠, 10♦, 3♣, A♣)
No. Q♥ + K♣ show guidance and protection, not harm. The 5♠ is the misunderstanding. 10♦ + 3♣ + A♣ = building prosperity and connections, not consuming innocence.
3. Does the Hollywood god require the souls of innocents? (J♥, 2♣, J♠, 3♦, J♥, 2♥)
Yes, this “Hollywood god” archetype thrives on the exchange of energy/attention from the young and pure. The repeated J♥ points to youth and attraction, and the J♠ is the predatory/magician aspect.
4. Are you such a bad ass you can close the Gate so any magick spell is unfollowed? (J♥, Q♦, 5♥, K♥)
Yes. The K♥ is the spiritual king who protects through love, Q♦ is the practical force, and the 5♥ suggests change in emotional connections — “unfollowing” energetically.
5. Is Baron Samedi such a bad ass he can do the same? (Q♥, K♣, 5♦, 9♥)
Yes — in fact, Baron can do it in the material and emotional planes. 9♥ shows wish fulfillment and emotional satisfaction.
6. Do you appear as an old man with straw hat, cane, cigar? (9♥, 6♦, 8♣, 4♣, 6♠, Q♥, 7♣, 7♥, 3♠, 3♥)
Yes — but not always. This is a traditional form (9♥ comfort/familiarity), but 6♠ + 3♠ show that He shifts appearances when needed, especially if the intent is teaching or testing.
7. The “Unfollowed” vision during vamp attack before i knew You well — was that Baron or you? (6♦, 3♠, 3♥, 6♣, 4♥, 7♠, A♥)
Mostly Papa Legba. The 3♠ here shows you were in conflict and disoriented, which made the features blur. The A♥ says it was an act of love and liberation — His doing.
8. May I post that you freed my soul from the Q♦ vamp? (J♦, 8♠, J♦, J♣, K♠, 5♦, 4♠, Q♠)
Yes — but be strategic. The J♦ + J♣ = message delivery power. The 8♠ + 4♠ say it could provoke backlash from her. K♠ + Q♠ = authority and mastery over shadow work — He can handle it.
9. Will you help others protect children from bad vamps? (K♦, 2♦, K♣, 5♠, J♣, 9♦, Q♥)
Yes — very much so. K♦ + K♣ = the kings of both material and practical wisdom. 9♦ = protection that manifests in tangible ways.
10. Do you love and protect children? (Q♣, K♦, 2♦, 10♣, 2♣, 3♥, 7♦, Q♠, 9♥, 10♥)
Absolutely yes. The spread is overflowing with positive connection cards — 9♥ + 10♥ are literally “deep love and emotional fulfillment.” Q♠ says protection can be fierce.
11. Did AHS want to make people scared of you? (J♣, 5♠, 10♠)
Yes — pure fear symbolism. 10♠ = ending/rebirth through fear, 5♠ = disruption, J♣ = delivery to the masses.
12. Did you fight back through your messengers? (3♠, Q♦, 8♠, K♥, 9♣, J♣, K♠)
Yes. 3♠ + 8♠ = strategic strikes. Q♦ + K♥ = allies in both practical and loving realms. J♣ + K♠ = messengers carrying shadow-breaking authority.
13. Was the black mist following me before I found you, you? (J♣, 8♦, A♠, J♥, 6♦, 3♠, A♦)
Yes — but not in a harmful way. A♠ is transformation, a “cloak” to keep you hidden from worse forces until you were ready. The J♥ shows the care behind it.
Every Gate has two sides — one that opens for the righteous, and one that slams shut for the cruel. Papa Legba still stands watch, His cane tapping the ground, His messengers moving through the world. Hollywood may have dressed Him in fear, but truth walks in better shoes. Unfollowed ase.
